Geocache Description:

Cache is located just off Ocean City Municipal Airport.  Cache is NOT located on the actual airport but right outside on a memorial.  Please respect the area and do not climb on any of the site.


Memorial you will see!

My father and few of the local veterans were brought together in a mission to restore the helicopter you see near the cache.  This helicopter was shipped from Pennsylvania from Indian Point Gap at the National Guard Training Center.  This copter was stripped of most the operational equipment and parts for other helicopters.  The engine however is still present and can be fully utilized however it was decided to leave it present to save time and effort of removing the engine.  It was repainted and placed back together on the Tarmac for about 6 months of work.  The windows were painted a blue tint and the whole helicopter was re-painted for restoration.  Please honor and welcome back a veteran next time you see one.  

Congrats to farmae on FTF!
